We want to use IBM PC clones (Opus) over an asynchronous network as
terminals for an IBM System 38.  Real IBM terminal have 24 special CF
keys; we need to know how to emulate these on the PCs.

We understand there exist some special keyboards which have these keys.
Does anyone know anything about them?
